You have to scroll down to see their ad.
They are not focus.
Just scroll down the page
There have been plenty of recent posts on this company. Also, look on page 2, 3, etc...
How far back to I have to scroll?

Never mind; I see now that you have to scroll down
Still loving the 10-12 hours a day for 3 days in a row. Not.
Can anybody figure out what $1.25 per 1000 characters really equals in cpl? Their ad says it ''equals out to about 9 cents a line,'' but my calculations aren't making any sense (probably because of spaces not being paid, I'd guess? ... I don't know how to convert from 65 cpl with spaces versus without).
scroll down this page for talk of better

Scroll down, there is test in the post. nm
Go to your original post. Scroll down a bit and look
for the see related messages in blue. Click on that and you'll get past posts.
Scroll down a couple pages (sm)
There are a few posts about them, nothing good that I saw. I do remember complaints about not enough work and the owner needing to sharpen up on his communication and people skills.
scroll to posts from the date
03-03-2007. Theye are posts from management regarding PT issue.
If you'll scroll down the page there have only been about
2 dozen posts about them in the past week.
What? There are a ton of TT MTs posting here. Scroll through the last few pages.
I would estimate that 95% of what you see posted here about TT is positive.
Yes, I was wrong in that I couldn't scroll down
person is basically a third party, getting us the work while we can still enjoy IC status, who cares?? Let her do the work, if that's what the MTs who work for her want. I certainly would rather sit back and transcribe and not handle all the other MAJOR stuff that comes with having our own accounts. Its a heck of a lot more work than you intimate. I'd gladly pay for a middle man to handle the big BS stuff, not worth the pennies more to me. So, to each his/her own, right? Peace!! Get upset at other bigger issues out there!
Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and
go to page 2. There's a list almost at the top of the page. Hope this helps!
whups - sorry, reply to wrong "who wants to be" reply
if I only had a brain...
Again, sorry to BTDT.
Scroll down and read the numerous posts over the
last week or so. Also dozens of posts in the archives.
Scroll down the board. This company has been asked about
several times this week, if not every day this week. Not much info other than they don't pay very well.
Tons of stuff in the archives or scroll down a
bit. They have been discussed extensively here recently. For the most part it is all good.
They have been discussed within the past week, scroll down and
see if you can see the post. S/B lots more posts in archives. Nothing good.
If you scroll down you'll see lots of info.

try holding cntr down and using mouse scroll.

Just scroll back several days and search the pages for webmedx. nm

Scroll down a week or so. Tons of good stuff. Great company
nm
um, only 1 harsh reply; the other 3 were in reply to the 1
nm
click on your post and then scroll down a bit and click
on related messages. You'll find posts there and also there have been posts within the last couple of weeks if you'll scroll down.
There is nothing good to say about SoftScript.
Page 2, scroll down towards the middle of the page, NM

I suppose someone could twist the post I put on the company forum as tattling. However, I dont see how. My post simply asked what the posts on MT stars were about. I really don't think I need to "alert" anyone to anything as millions of MTs come to this forum daily. Also, as some disgruntled ex-Transcenders said, their words not mine, Larry scans these boards regularly himself.
Another thing, I at least tried to go to the source and find out some information about what the OP was saying about unfair treatment, unfair pay and such between newbies and long-termers at Transcend. I wanted to know what the person was talking about since she wasnt going to explain herself. At least, I took it where it belonged in the first place, the company. Of course, there was never a reply as that person isn't able to post using her name.
Thank you for your post trying to divert the attention on to me instead of the issue at hand. If you are leaving or have left, why are still bothered by what I say?
My reply to your reply to my reply, lol
Michelle,
All I meant was that we could BOTH could be construed as troublemakers, depends on how you look at it.
You could also look at it that you were confronting people there at the company and trying to get them to talk about these things where you think it belongs.
There's a history, here, Michelle, that you're not aware of about why people won't talk about certain things on that forum, and you're not sure if they've already TRIED talking to management about it and got nowhere, you assume too much.
You're waltzing in here like you have controlling interest (hahaha, no pun intended) in Transcend and think you know how things should go, ignoring that there might be a history of why people are afraid to talk.
Really, though, it's not your job to try force people to answer any of your questions, here or anywhere else.
I applaud your courage to confront people about their claims, but learn when to leave it alone, that there may be a history that you weren't a part of, you weren't there yet, and people just want to commune to share experience and get a reality check.
And I'm sorry, I don't believe your only motivation was to get people talking about these issues where you think they belong.
There are some that have never even heard of this board and your post directed them here and stirred up a flurry of activity and I think you knew it would. So I hate to tell you this, but you've alerted several people to the complaints by bringing them here.
As IF it's any of your business, I have not finished my notice with them, Michelle, and was toiling whether I had done the right thing initially. I'm not about to leave anyone high-and-dry.
Let's see where you are in about three years, Michelle, you're going to be something else to deal with...Transcend better keep you on their good side.
Thanks for the reply (sm)
Do you currently work for them? If so, could you please share a little bit of information about them? Do you know what their line rate is?
Thanks for your help!

okay you got it...thanks!
Thanks for the reply!
And thank you for your honesty. That is very much appreciated!
REPLY TO Hi LEE. from KS
I AM NOT AFRAID TO POST MY REAL NAME!!
To set the record straight... I posted on here because I spoke from my heart which is the TRUTH about what I think from MY perspective on the companies that I have worked for in the past, just to give someone else some insight.... NO ONE from Keystrokes put me up to this, Not Lee OR Becky... OR not management of any kind, form or shape....
I just wanted to express how I felt about working for Keystrokes as I have worked for MANY nationals out there and anyone can e-mail me OR phone me and I will send you my credentials/resume to let you know this is NOT Lee!!! I think KEYSTROKES ROCKS!!
Kim Drietz Lake Benton, MN 612-486-9935 I'm not afraid to post my name.. BIG DEAL!! I will get off my  now!!!

Thanks for your concern! I will keep that in mind for the future!

IN REPLY TO TT MT
Not only I have been transcribing since the ice ages but I have been with TT longer than 1 year. I have worked on many platforms and have been paid hourly, salarly, by the minute, by the line, and by characters so I too am familiar with different aspects of different line counts and I have never had a problem with TT before but I do now and now is my concern. I am not trying to badmouth TT because I have no problems with TT I just don't understand my line count and Debbie doesn't understand it either. My only question has been and still is "is there someone out there who have worked with this platform and know how this line count "really" works?" and if that is a question you can answer for me or if there is some kind of formula you have that you can make me understand it since you seem to know that your counts are correct then I would really appreciate it because after all thats all I am asking for.

How pathetic can you get? You need your husband's permission to post? My life is great - you need to save your pity for your poor pathetic self....if your husband says it's okay, that is. Adios!
Now that reply is really
Really not worth a reply. This "old hag" bets you're a 20-year-old stud, sitting there in your birthday suit, doing OB/GYN notes and getting your delights. Sheesh, yourself.
Never got a reply

Thank you for your reply
